played a bit of musical wheels after cancelling my order for carbon wheels after some non bike related impulse buys... then found some too cheap to pass up.
both bikes now have 15mm front hubs, so can mix and match as required. Threshold just runs a 15mm to QR adaptor.
1400g, 27mm wide FarSports carbon clinchers. bloody light, and bloody awesome. those on the TCX with Maxxis Raze' make it feel like a rocket. will be rubbish in the mud though.

hopefully the TCX's first proper run will be the Xmas Cross at Berang in december.

Very nice Mitchy!TCX arrived.
carbon wheels are on their way, waiting for my GXP bottom bracket so i can replace the boat anchor sora crank with my sram red crank, and R540 pedals will be going in light of something lighter too.. probably egg beaters.

On that, is there a reason for the two, or is it a case of 'because fuck you, that's why!'?

Mitchy is forever changing and swapping cx bikes. I still reckon that black carbon thing looked like brooke shields in blue lagoon.

whoops, yeah i did mean Nerang. and yep, that's the one!
pretty much... had a disc roadie and disc cx... prefered the cx and have always wanted the blue TCX...
the Threshold was always a cheap bike i could leave at the shops, etc and not fear it's going to be broken or missing upon return.

very nice!
love the look of the new Threshold's. was tossing up between the Red carbon Threshold, or a blue TCX... i dont think australia ended up getting the red one. just green and lellow.
if it rides anything like my alloy Threshold (presumably better) then it will be a sweet, sweet ride.

that's how mine felt.. made me wonder why i had a CX and a roadie, when the CX felt the exact same yet had the ability to be taken off road... and that's how i came to swap my roadie for a second CX bike. :nod:
